A couple of resoration questions, oh dear.... Options

Okay, the interior is out of my 914, I have my heat gun and a scraper, and I am ready to remove tar.

Also I just siphoned all the gas (well, as much as I could get) out of the tank and put it in my subaru (OBS - it will burn piss if I wanted it too....).

Anyway, tomorrw I want to pull the gas tank, and scrape the tar out to the interior.

Questions:
1) wires. How did you all remove the wires? Just cut them out and replace anew? Mark them and try and reuse? I want to clear the center tunnel, and I need to get the wires out to do so. The wire bits of this (and any) car are the only things that give me pause....

2) The gas tank. Anyhting that I need to watch out for as I remove it? Not *all* the gass is out. thre is still some in the baffles. Hof do I clear it? I am going to send the tank out to be checked and coated inside.

3) My car has the "factory" AC. My plan is to remove it but to save the peices. Less weight. But the front consencer. Man, cut through the front trunk. Should I cut it out and weld in a anew front trunk floor, or just leave it as is, incase I descide that I want to replace the AC once summer comes and I swelter in Baltimore traffic.

Oh, and go see Serenity (the Firefly movie). I just got out of it. I was a fan of the series... but, damn. This was the best moive that I have seen this year - and I did not think much was going to top Batman.
